True also, you can buy the 360 and Wii for less than Ps3, so it's very cheap. I don't know tohugh, I mean it doesn't have Hd, and its only a little more poweful than gamecube[or so they say] so why shouldn't it be around the same launch price as the gamecube?

Well a big part of it is that with the Wii they have to cover the Research and Development of it, once they get that paid off and the market cools down a bit im sure they will lower it to $200 or below.
